chris christie do this. willie, i was surprised by that. even those on the far right, i would think they know that chris christie is not a pawn. he's not a puppet. they would know that he's not some sort of partisan idiot. he's a politician who runs the state of new jersey. he's going to do what's best for his state. did we not know that about him before? >> he's trying to get federal aid. and if that required a little rubbing the back of the president of the united states, he thought so be it. do you believe any of that, mark halperin, republicans, some of them have suggested that that chris christie is positioning himself for four years from now, he's undermining the romney campaign. are we reading too much into that? are they reading too much into that? >> doing just what you said, not just getting federal aid, but we saw it after 9/11 and other crises, what do people need? efficient delivery of services, but they also need inspirational leadership. and i think christie sees the value of having the presid

and governor christie is a jersey guy, through and through. and what we're seeing in the last 24 hours with him, i think, is what i've seen with him over the last couple of years, wherever he's appeared. i didn't think he had the greatest keynote in the world, but the fact is that he is what he is. when he began to raise hell with the mayor of atlantic city for not following his orders, saying i don't give a damn about the election, i think people respond to that, democrat or republican. >> because it's real. president bush, you mentioned that moment as well as the first pitch soon after -- >> at the world series, incredible. >> incredibly symbolic and brave on a number of levels. he probably shouldn't have done it, but he did it. >> these kinds of events in the political climate in which we now live, there was no fireman that asked someone they were rescuing, are you a tea party member? red or blue state? how do you feel about tax cuts versus spending cuts? people just go out and get the job done, know that there's a big challenge ahead of u.

i heard christie this morning, you're going to hear him again. i don't think he's going to be for cutting out of fema, and i don't know if chris christie is someone thought of as a fiscal liberal. >> no, not at all. what do you make of all of these polls, chuck, we've been talking about the polls all over the place. you've got, of course, minnesota, you've got bill clinton going to minnesota. that's a surprise. you've got karl rove and the president talking about spending money in pennsylvania. you've got suddenly the map seems to be expanding a little bit on what president and romney supporters are doing. >> i think strategically, if i go back six months ago, it was a strategic mistake the romney campaign made by not trying to expand the map sooner. they're trying to rush in and do some things now, but if they could have thinned out the president's money for him to spend money in 12 states, they never did, never did this, i never understood that reasoning. they look at the polls and see, hey, if the national polls are at a point in one direction

but chris christie -- >> good way of putting it. >> cuomo and malloy is going to be very aggressive and work very close with the president and the white house because they are concerned about the people, not just the politics of it, they're concerned about the people. but those are highly competent, very aggressive governors. >> chuck, explain about this campaign shifting to the midwest in the final stretch because obviously north carolina's now out of play. virginia's out of play. new hampshire's out of play. unless, of course, the president goes to visit damaged areas in virginia. >> he could do disaster -- yes, there is some of that. >> expect that, by the way. >> right. but i mean, already look at how romney's reacted just with his scheduling, right? they canceled virginia and went to ohio. you know, there's really no other places to go. he did a florida event. i would expect that he pops back down to florida one more time. but i think the president has something to do right now. the president has a government to run, a fema to direct, all of these things. i think the trickier polit
